Any members with Vance and Hines slip ons? Do they sound good? I had never seen a set until these on Ebay. I have to say they look real good. Just curious.

Actually, the Vance and Hines stuff is made pretty good.
I haven't heard their Mufflers on a TL, but I had a set on my old GSXR750/1100 and they sounded good. They were loud, but not obnoxious. They were easy to tune also, and made some good power on that old inline 4.Your Friend in Sport,

I have one on my Katana, I can verify they are built solidly. This thing has been through hell. It's an old one, but man does it sound sweet....on a 4.Comment

I've got a V&H slipon on my CBR. I used to think it sounded pretty good until I put my Yosh C/F cans on my TLR
I wouldn't buy one, it just happened to come with the bike. In all fairness it produces good power.Retired the TLR for a Gixxer 1K. Sorry boys I sold you out

those have been run way too long without a good repacking. the carbon is shot. they would need new sleeves as well as the badge and i dont think they offer re-sleeving anymore.
i alwasy wondered why in ama the vance and hines ducati never ran vance and hines pipes
2000 tillis plus stuff with some polished stuff and some carbon fiber stuff and a little bit of tlr stuff and some gsxr stuff

i had the exactly same pipes on my old TLR before it was stolen. Awesome sound, but the pipes suck ass, i blew a hole thru the carbon fiber on the side of the right can, and they faded to crap
there's a reason why Vance doesn't make the SS2r or any carbon pipe for the tlr no more heh.

Yeah, I have seen some pretty bad CF V&H cans. And they sound like crap. Never heard any on a TL.2003 TL1000R

I`ve got a set of V & H SS2r`s (stainless) on my tls.....and i think they`re awesome! They look good(highly polished) and are pretty unique in this part of the world, and they suit the bike well. They sound great to, pretty loud.....but that`s good.
As for poorly made....i can only comment on mine and as far as i can see they are made quite well, rivets are all in place after 30000klms, no corrosion and they haven`t fallen off. I highly recomend them.DaveComment

One of the locals has V&H on his TLR and they look good and they sound pretty good too. They are not as loud IMHO as the Full systems, 2Bros, Micron's etc but still quite nice.
